The bomb scare began at around 11 a.m. when a woman parked her car in front of the jail at 651 I Street. She left the car, and when she returned found a suspicious package inside. She then alerted jail officials.

The jail was put on lockdown and streets in the area were blocked off as the bomb squad investigated.
